Bayern Munich vs Bayer Leverkusen LIVE: Kane in Bundesliga action three days after Scotland clash – kick-off time, team news and how to follow

The 30-year-old is gearing up for arguably his biggest test in Germany so far as he leads the line against Leverkusen.

Bayern are level on nine points with Xabi Alonso’s side at the top of the table as the only two teams with perfect records so far.

But Thomas Tuchel will be hoping Kane comes through England duty unscathed, with his star man playing Scotland just three days prior.

Bayern Munich vs Bayer Leverkusen: Team news

The hosts will be sweating on the fitness of a number of key stars, with Kane set to captain England in Glasgow on Tuesday.

Bayern teammates Joshua Kimmich, Leroy Sane, Serge Gnabry and Thomas Muller will also be in action that night against France but at least the quartet are playing on home soil.

The reigning champions already have several injuries to contend with as Jamal Musiala is nursing a back complaint.

Long-serving goalkeeper Manuel Neuer is a long-term absentee.

Bayern Munich vs Bayer Leverkusen: What has been said?

While on international duty, Kane has stated that the winning culture at Bayern is what separates the club from Tottenham.

He said: “We wanted to win at Spurs.

“But if you went a couple of games without winning it wasn’t a disaster. At Bayern you have to win every game.

“After winning 3-1 and 4-0 in our first two games, there was talk about not being too happy about way we played!

“Top club mentality.”
